I don't think i have had this occur since being in the league but I have 7 Starting Pitchers going today. Luckily I can move one to RP but don't know if that has happened to me in the previous seasons.

I will be curious if it will even turn out to be a 100 point day. Ohtani could end up scoring more than the other 6 pitchers combined.

It is proving tough for my team to overcome to early losses of Altuve and Edwin Diaz. My Keepers outside of Ohtani are just not producing for me early.

Injuries can ruin a season. That Springs loss is huge if down for 2 months+.

I am 2-0, but not feeling super confident right now. Looking to shake things up fairly significantly. I won't say my keepers (Adley, Burnes, Strider, Cease, Tucker) are completely off the board, but not feeling a huge reason to move them at this point. But looking to make a bunch of moves with just about anyone else. Not looking for any specific positions at this point, just want to make some deals

Barring any last inning chaos, looks like I’ll sneak past Marble (not sure on BO name) in an absolute slug fest. We had the 2nd and 3rd highest scores on the week. Unfortunate one of us had to take a loss. Looks I’ll be the highest scorer as well; maybe I’ll actually be competitive this season

Damn good back and forth…was hoping Robertson could get a save but not to be today…time to maybe make some adjustments lol
Congrats on the win!

I've scored the most points in the league and I'm 1-2. Make it make sense to me please. Head to head is the dumbest scoring system ever invented. It's so random and hardly ever representative of how good or bad a team may be.

well you scored a massive amount with the extended week 1....got the Win

Week two you lost a close matchup with the 4th best score...tough break...306-302

Week 3--you should lose...you had 8th best score

so basically you could argue you "should" be 2-1 but lost by 4pts one week and are 1-2 instead...

its not that crazy of an outcome at this point...


just like if you look at my 2-1 record and my Points For...im near bottom of league in points scored...but most of that is also due the exact opposite outcome of week 1 that you had...my LOWEST score was week 1...with 3-4 extra days!! i scored 275 compared to your 515 that week!!

week 2 i had 326 (2pts off from high score that week)

week 3 i had 282 and beat a low scoring team...my score was top half

so essentially i should be 2-1 but my total points are low cuz of week 1 and me being soooo low....

Award for most lopsided team in one day ever goes to.....ME Yesterday

Offense was on fire: 6 HRs 14RBI more BB than K....66pts just from offense

Pitching was....not: Had 4 starts that overall I felt ok about...well...

16IP, 34H, 27ER 9BB 12K...2 Losses (got bailed out on the other two for no decisions)

Offense had 66pts...should have easily got to 100+ yesterday....Pitching went MINUS 46!!!! for a total of 20pts on the day....unreal!!

Looking to add some offense here, could move some pitching in return. Don't see a need to move Burnes/Strider/Cease but others are on the table

Luis Garcia (Round 13 value, out for season) is available for players who will help my team this year if anyone is interested in stashing a keeper.

Does anyone know how ESPN handles going over games started within a single day? Example there are 8 games started going into Sunday and 5 starting pitchers in the lineup for Sunday. Does all 5 starters count or does the last starter of the day not have their stats count?

It will count all of them - so you need to be careful not to go over the max. I can manually adjust scoring as needed subtracting the starts whose game started last as needed as well

I fully expect to move these guys in the next 2 months. FYI

Mookie Betts
Jose Altuve
George Springer
Lance Lynn
Corbin Carroll
Jesus Luzardo
Martin Perez

and possibly the 3 relievers.

No rush in moving them but they are on the block. Will be looking for Round 10+ Keeper options.

I posted last month about having 7 pitchers going on one day. First time it had happened to me in this league. I think they only combined for like 40 points lol
